METHOD FOR MEASURING AND CORRECTING MISREGISTRATION BETWEEN LAYERS IN A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE, AND MISREGISTRATION TARGETS USEFUL THEREIN

A method for measurement of misregistration in the manufacture of semiconductor device wafers, the method including measuring misregistration between layers of a semiconductor device wafer at a first instance and providing a first misregistration indication, measuring misregistration between layers of a semiconductor device wafer at a second instance and providing a second misregistration indication, providing a misregistration measurement difference output in response to a difference between the first misregistration indication and the second misregistration indication, providing a baseline difference output and ameliorating the difference between the misregistration measurement difference output and the baseline difference output.
